A herd of 30 Przewalski's horses was released into the wild at the Kalamaili Nature Reserve in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Wednesday.
This marked the reserve's 19th release of Przewalski's horses - the world's only remaining wild horse species, native to the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang and parts of Mongolia.
Identifiable by their robust build, tan color and upright, dark mane, the horse is listed as a national first-class protected animal in China and remains endangered globally.
By the end of 2025, 392 Przewalski's horses had been released into the wild in Xinjiang, raising hopes the species can thrive again in its native land.
